For one, India has had a season like this before, hitting .249\/.327\/.378 in 2022. That\u2019s better than what he showed in 2025, but he bounced back enough from that to hit .244\/.338\/.407 the next year and .248\/.357\/.392 the year after that. So he\u2019s bounced back from struggles. And there\u2019s the fact that sometimes a player can struggle in a first year in a new location. The Royals traded for a guy who had a career .352 OBP and a .357 OBP the year before they got him. They will still need a leadoff hitter in 2026, though it would be tough to count on him again. I will say that I just don\u2019t think it\u2019s cut and dry.<\/p>\n
That said, I\u2019m exploring the trade market for India before the deadline. I don\u2019t want to give him nearly eight figures for uncertainty. If I\u2019m going to take a risk on someone for that kind of money, I\u2019m going to take a risk on a profile that is more useful, like some power (that\u2019ll come in the trade article). If I have to take ten cents on the dollar for him, fine. If there\u2019s not a trade partner (there will be), I\u2019m going to with the non-tender here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
